Turkey (Cappadocia > Pamukkale) Nov 2018 D-5



Day 5 Monday 5 Nov 2018 - SA tour brochure quotes " In the morning leaves Cappadocia for Pamukkale.

- En route, visit Sultanhani Caravanserai- an ancient inn & rest stop for the Silk Road travelers in the olden days
- Then make a stop to see an Obruk - a sinkhole lake
- After that continue with the journey to Pamukkale
- After checking in, indulge yourself in a Turkish thermal bath (please bring along your swimsuit)


1) Sultanhani Caravansari - under restoration so unable to appreciate this historical site as some parts of the building were not accessible to visitors ! 


2) Sinkhole Lake, Obruk - awesome to look at !


3) The Obruk Han (ancient Inn near the Sink Hole) - under restoration; visited this site on my own free will ! 


4) Overnight stay at Pam Thermal Hotel (5 Star), Pamukkale


5) After my hotel check in and before & after the dinner, I made two visits (one with my wife) to Pamukkale town for photo shooting & window shopping ! 


Day 5 - Makan Makan (Eating) in Cappadocia > Pamukkale

1) Buffet Breakfast in Queen's Cave Hotel, Cappadocia


2) Set Lunch in Bezirhane Restaurant (underground) - the stewed chicken cooked inside a hot pot and inviting one of our tour members using a knife to cut open the tip of the pot was very interesting to see ! 


3) Buffet Dinner in Pam Thermal Hotel, Pamukkale - I think I over eat tonight - food very appetizing indeed - very tempting to try more & more ! 


4) Yogurt with honey & poppy seed topping - 10 lira - funny taste ! 


5) Bought a bottle of honey (850gm) for home - 60 lira
